Johnny Rivers - Chicago Bound Lyrics
Well, I left out of Georgia 1964My baby begged me: Daddy, please don't goBut I left that town, you know I left that townWhen I left out of Georgia, you know I was Memphis boundWell, I stayed in Memphis in 1969That woman I loved didn't pay me no mindSo I left that town, you know I left that townWhen I left out of Memphis, you know I was St. Louis boundI didn't need no steam heat by my bedLady I slept with kept it cherry redWell, I left that town, hmm, I left that townWhen I left St. Louis, you know I was Chicago boundI'm gonna tell you something you oughta knowChicago's the best place I ever knowedI'm-a stay in this town, I'm-a live in this townChicago's the place, it's the baddest place around
